Dr. Satan, a Brilliant but warped master criminal, embarks on a reign of terror using a powerful robot he has created in order to achieve his ends. Dr. Satan needs an advanced remote control cell to perfect his robot and increase its power, and attempts to steal the cell from its inventor, Thomas Scott. The theft is prevented when an athletic masked hero known only as the Copperhead suddenly appears. The Copperhead is, in reality, Bob Wayne, who has donned an old mask used by his father when the elder Wayne was a wrongly accused fugitive from justice in the old west.
